It's Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history. This week, we stumble by many coincidences onto the story of Australian Test cricket's WWII commando, and his connection to a Japanese POW camp, in a poignant week for Geoff to link these things together. If you're interested, look up the poetry of Chris Wallace-Crabbe.
